In 2013/2014, weißensee academy of art berlin’s dining hall, first opened on November 11, 1956, was renovated and newly furnished, with joint funding by the academy and the studierendenWERK Berlin. It is now used both for eating and studying, as well as for leisure activities, Currently, it has 115 seats on an area of 235 square meters.
The space had five parts
anteroom with vending machines for drinks and snacks (originally the cloak room)
cafeteria space with the mural Tiere by Bert Heller
the original “professors’ dining room”
breakfast room (cafeteria) with the ceramic wall plates by Rudolf Kaiser and Ernst Rudolf Vogenauer
kitchen area.
The ensemble of which the dining hall is part, is listed as a historic building.
The sgraffito muralTiere, created in 1956, in the dining hall space was painted over in the 1970s. During the latest renovations, the academy’s academic senate decided to have it partly uncovered again.
The path from Bühringstraße to the dining hall is wheelchair accessible.
